At Cleveland’s League Park, the Blues (Indians) beat Chicago, 11-7. White Sox right-hander Frank Isbell strands eleven runners on the basepaths to set an American League record.

Ban Johnson suspends Baltimore 1B Burt Hart for striking umpire John Haskell yesterday, stating “This is the first time a player in the American League has struck an umpire, and it is an offense that cannot be overlooked.” The 31-year-old Hart will never play again.

In Boston’s 10 – 5 win in the first game of a twinbill at Baltimore, the Bostons pull off a triple play.

In the second inning of the nightcap against the Americans in Baltimore, Jimmy Hart punches umpire John Haskell in the face. The Orioles’ rookie first baseman who hits .311 playing in a total of only 58 games in his major league career, serves a ten-day suspension, but quits after going 4-for-4 upon his return because the team refused to pay the $25 he had been fined.

In the first of two in Philly, Giant OF Ike Van Zandt makes an 11th-inning error and Philadelphia goes on to score three runs and win, 6 – 3. Van Zandt came on in the 9th after starting LF Kip Selbach was tossed for protesting strike calls. Christy Mathewson takes the loss for New York.

At Cincinnati, Topsy Hartsel strokes two inside-the-park homers, but they are not enough as Chicago loses to the Reds, 10 – 7. Whitey Guese takes the decision over Jock Menefee.

Cincinnati and Pittsburgh players are clocked while running from home plate to first base. The fastest time for the 90-foot sprint is three seconds flat, by Pirates OF Ginger Beaumont.

Cleveland pitcher Ed Scott goes all the way against Milwaukee and hits a solo home run in the top of the 10th to win, 8 – 7. It is the last game of Scott’s career. Bill Reidyserves up the homer in the loss.
